Nirol, I have my light balast mounted in a storage room that is right next to the room my tank is in. The small black boxes are night lights. There is one fan in the canpy , you can see part of it in the pic showing the sea swirls, it is behind the white union.
Ni dimmer
Lights are on actnics for 12 hours , all 4 lights for 10 hours, the moonlights are on the other 12 hours. refugium lighted reverse lighting of the main tank.

And here is a pic of my new coral

Great reef tank. Keep up the great work. I'm getting started and your tank is an inspiration. Thanks for sharing!

 

[Nirol]

Tony... thanks again for the answers. I do recall pics of your fish room and the two ballasts on the wall. so the two hour difference in the lights is to simulate dusk and dawn I guess...what time do they come on and go off?

 

[tonym10]

Correct about the dusk dawn. 7am,8am-6pm,7pm

 

[Nirol]

oops! How do you delete a couble post?

 

[Nirol]

do the lights put out much heat? In other words do you think you really need the fan?

Hi Tony!!! Just wondering, have you ever thought about doing and gorognians? I have some and they are doing great. I love the height to them and the colors are awesome. Just wondering.

Hi AEA , tell me about your gorgs.
I have thought about them , but have read some need to be fed , some are like other corals and use light. What kind do you have?
What is the care like for them?

 

[tonym10]

Niro, if you have the lights as close as mine are to the water you need a fan, they are hot close to them.

Tony, I have two species of Photosynthedic gorgonians, and both are doing great. I do not feed them anything other than lighting, and they are thriving. Those that need to be target-fed tend to not fare as well, but they are not impossible to keep. Amanda has one that is doing great last time I checked.

They are beautiful additions to a reef. Here is one of mine:

 

[AEALOVESHERGIRLS]

I have the red gorgonian and the purple gorgonian. The purple is physynthic but the red is a filter feeder. They are both beautiful and doing great!!

Here is a pic of my other guys that dont fit in the reef.

 

[rjwilson37]

What are you doing with that?

 

[tonym10]

With what?

 

[johndawg]

Tony, I live in Tunkhannock for 3 years (near Scranton).

Keep up the great job. Love the indoor goldfish pond. Are they permanent there or in for the winter?
